In the Sculpture Gallery is a 2011 by Emily Sutton, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This drawing shows a family walking past statues in the Victoria and Albert Museum. It’s a preparatory illustration for a children’s book called Clara Button and the Magical Hat Day. Made in 2011, it’s a detailed ink drawing. It wasn’t used in the final book. The artist drew it to plan the scene first. Look up the Victoria and Albert Museum next.
A woman, a young girl named Clara Button, and her brother Ollie are shown walking past antique statues displayed on plinths in the Victoria and Albert Museum. The scene is set on a floor with a blue square pattern. This preparatory illustration was created by Emily Sutton in 2011 for the book *Clara Button and the Magical Hat Day*, though it was not included in the final publication. Sutton, who graduated from Edinburgh College of Art in 2008, specializes in children’s book illustration and draws inspiration from 20th-century artists such as Edward Bawden and Eric Ravilious.
